WELCOME BACK MY BEAUTIES!
I hope this week finds you well.

We are in for ANOTHER snow storm and honestly I think I am starting to go a bit nutty. 

We are already at snow day 10 or 11..(I have lost count) and they are thinking possibly 1 or 2 more this week.

I am hoping that for once they are wrong about the snow and ice (normally they are only wrong about NICE weather...am I right...or am I right? ) 

ANYWHOOO...I am sick of Gray and Dark and Gloomy so I decided I needed to paint something bright cheery and HAPPY.

You know, a little FAUX sunshine feeling. 

Since I was going for that FAUX sunshine feeling I decided to paint this outdated little cabinet using some General Finishes

Milk Paint in Somerset Gold..(You know..what I think the sun might look like if we ever see it again here in Michigan) 

Since the top was in perfect condition I just cleaned that up.

For the base I lightly sanded the whole thing and then wiped it down with a damp cloth. 

Then I gave it a couple coats of the bright and sunny yellow and.....

VOILA!!! 

She looks happy and sunny and cheery!

I don't often paint things yellow, but I felt like this piece was the perfect size to add just a little bit of happy to a room.

Not too much..Not too little.

It went from drab and dreary to happy and cheery.

And who couldn't use a little happy and cheery right now!

I could use BOATLOADS of happy and cheery and SUN..

So if you got any extra be sure to send it to Michigan.

I would be eternally grateful....:)

I hope you liked this happy and fun little makeover.

I am going to go back under my 400 blankets and cover my head and hope when I crawl out the storm will have passed 

and we will be headed towards spring!

Until then have a BEAUTIFUL day!
